Hands-On: Building AI Agents with Embabel

In this hands-on lab you will build an AI Agent using the Embabel Agent Framework and Kotlin or Java (you pick). The Agent will use Amazon Bedrock and local models for LLM inference and features deterministic planning, domain-driven orchestration, and MCP tools. We will use multiple AI models to show how reliability of Agents can be improved when catering each Agent action to the best suited model. Embabel is built on Spring AI but prior experience with Spring is unnecessary.
